Im want to know on the stock rear disc, is there a way to adj the e brakes individually? I know about the bolt/nut at the bottom of the handle.. but thats gonna do both.. I just replaced the LR caliper and its acting as if that ones not locking up good under full ebrake load... **** wont even lock up at all for real.. And I know I put everything back together right, including the spring.. Any comments helpfull really appreciated..

Larry,

It could be a stretched cable

But to answer your question, there isn't really a way to adjust each side individually.

Thanks alot.. I was thinking maybe the cable came undone @ the handle bracket, when I was changing the caliper.. highly unlikely though..ha... **** it.. its just the stupid vert daily driver anyway..

If I still had my old cables, I'd give them to you. But I had to cut the cables to get them out of the front cable bracket. They were rust welded in place.
